Over the last 12 months, new insights into the association of non‐ Helicobacter pylori Helicobacters with a range of human diseases in children and adults, including hepatobiliary disease, Crohn’s disease, sepsis, and gastric disease were published. Studies investigating the presence of non‐ H.   pylori Helicobacters in domestic animals reinforce previous findings that cats and dogs harbor gastric Helicobacter species and thus may be an important source of these organisms in humans. The confounding effect of enterohepatic Helicobacters on the outcome of biomedical research was investigated in several studies and led to recommendations that animals should be screened prior to performing experiments. A number of important and novel investigations regarding pathogenic mechanisms and immune responses to enterohepatic Helicobacters were conducted. Genomic advances in non‐ H. pylori Helicobacters included description of the complete genome of Helicobacter canadensis , delineation of two Helicobacter bilis genomospecies, and identification of a novel cis‐ regulatory RNA. New insights concerning growth conditions, biochemical characterization, and the effect of certain dietary compounds on Helicobacter spp. have also been reported.
